2023-08-18
Between waiting for the bus, relax the slightly tense calf muscles caused by running for the bus; Before the movie starts, use it to make a ceremonial ending to the day's work; Tired from shopping, I spent more than ten minutes at the mall doing a SPA (stress relief service) for my tense shoulders and neck... With the development of the sharing economy, shared massage chairs have emerged. They are scattered in stations, airports, cinemas, shopping malls, and office buildings. By imitating traditional massage techniques such as kneading, massage, back pounding, and vibration, consumers can relieve muscle tension and relax their body and mind, using relatively affordable prices and just the right duration, Won the favor of many people. However, a recent investigation by the reporter of the Legal Daily found that while sharing massage chairs provides convenience for consumers, there are also some potential safety hazards, such as insufficient hygiene disinfection and sterilization, damaged equipment skin, failure and disrepair. Another interviewee roast that the large-scale promotion of massage chairs in public places occupied the space for ordinary chairs, affecting the normal exercise of the public's right to rest. Several interviewed experts pointed out that shared massage chairs were originally intended to enrich consumer demand and should not become a "weapon" that harms consumers. Wherever shared massage chairs are installed, relevant parties should carry out daily maintenance and cleaning to avoid accidents and endanger people's safety. For people like us who make overtime and business trips their daily lives, it's the most considerate. "Ms. Tian, who works for a foreign company in Beijing and is a loyal fan of shared massage chairs, said she has almost experienced all the shared massage chairs in all scenarios. Like Ms. Tian, many people are fans of sharing massage chairs. Public data shows that during the peak period, the number of shared massage chairs installed nationwide exceeded 1 million in just one year. From cinemas to train stations, airports, and large supermarkets, shared massage chairs are blooming everywhere. Recently, reporters visited Beijing Airport, multiple shopping malls, and cinemas and found that some shopping malls have installed multiple shared massage chairs on each floor; Some cinemas have dedicated "massage chair rest areas", and even the viewing area has many shared massage chairs. On August 4th, a reporter saw at a shopping mall in Chaoyang, Beijing that 8 shared massage chairs in the massage area on the second floor were filled with people. Someone has just started the massage service, someone is scanning the code, and someone is sitting and enjoying the service. At Beijing Capital International Airport, the reporter noticed that there are many shared massage chairs in the waiting hall, which are almost fully occupied. According to Zhang Shan (pseudonym), the person in charge of a massage chair production company in Dongguan, Guangdong, shared massage chairs do not require personnel to be on duty or stocked, have simpler functions and lower maintenance costs. Customers can enjoy the service after successfully scanning the QR code for payment. Each massage chair is monitored through remote data, and channel operators can check the status of the massage chair anytime and anywhere. Shared massage chairs can be divided into two business models: direct sales and agency. "Zhang Shan said that direct sales refer to massage chair manufacturers negotiating with channel parties such as shopping malls, cinemas, and stations through self built platforms, and the manufacturer provides massage chairs for free. The channel party only needs to provide the venue, and the revenue is negotiated and distributed by both parties. For example, his production company purchases raw materials on its own, develops corresponding products for specific venues, and then looks for cinemas
